One day, without warning, Hekla lands in Laki’s crater, invites himself into his house, and happily messes up his life. Laki learns to make room for him, looks after him and even ends up forgetting what his life was like before Hekla. In this sublime picture book where beauty and strangeness intertwine, Marine Schneider whisks readers off to the distant volcanic lands of Iceland to tell a universally relatable story of the love between parent and child.
